A great day starts with coffee in Seattle, the home of the caffeine fix. Its experimental music scene is also world-famous. Think grunge and hip hip – and check out the Museum of Pop Culture! Eating is student friendly too. From food trucks to upscale eateries on the waterfront, pick your price – or soak up the bustle and banter of Pike Place Market for foodie goodies piled high. And the nature? It's stunning, whether you’re paddleboarding in Green Lake Park or day-tripping out to dramatic Mount Rainier.
